How much is an "envelope og gelatin"?? What does it equal in powder or plates??

I'm making Salmon mousse from The Silver Palate cook book and the recipe says "one envelope of gelatin". We don't have envelopes over here. I have a box of powdered gelatin and a package of plates. What should I use, and how much?

 
What we learned in school is:1 pkg = 1 Tablespoon = 4 sheets

But I have found that the sheets vary in size. I got some the other day and they were about half the length that I think of as typical sheets. I think typical sheets are about 4"x2" (guessing) and these were almost square like 2"x2" or 2"x1 1/2" or something. They were strange size but all I could find.
